My bad: using a consistent terminology is hard sometimes. When I say data
view, I mean openEHR data.

So my 100 compositions are good old openEHR compositions in an openEHR
implementation.
All my layers are in openEHR, building on top of each other. So if you (and
I) take openEHR clinical data as information (even though I called it data
previously) I'm suggestion transformations of information to higher levels.

Each level knows about what is below it (Problem lists know about clinical
data, they don't know about care plans) but does not know in which context
it is going to be used. So problem lists would not have any references to
care plans.

I can't agree or disagree with you regarding how fundamental problem
orientation is; I am not a clinician. But I could enforce it in a clean and
customisable way if I use the architecture I suggested. Some of these
layers I've suggested may not be easily definable (if there is such a
word..) in openEHR but that is OK, this is why there are PhD programmes out
there.

So I guess my point is; when Pablo asks how do I do problem oriented
records with openEHR, I'd say "using an architecture like this", based on a
slight modification of Tom's (IMHO) correct suggestion of computable care
plans. Your points would all be mapped into that architecture and become
software implementation tasks and decisions.
